The Nursing & Midwifery Council (NMC) is extremely concerned about the length of time that it is taking to resolve the issues for the families of former patients at Gosport War Memorial Hospital.

There have been two police investigations, which concluded in 2007, followed by an inquest conducted by the local coroner and continuing proceedings before the General Medical Council (GMC).

It is hoped that the evidence from all of these investigations will enable us to assess the conduct of nursing staff who may have been involved.
